Hello! I am having my vacation on the Galapagos Islands and currently I am actually visiting Esmeraldas which is a little town on the cost of Ecuador I am actually in an internet cafe and I just saw an interesting tattoo shop and was thinking of doing some tattoo here-I just loved them they looks so good. The thing is that I am sort of afraid of doing this here and now I mean –is it safe to make tattoo in Ecuador

Well I don't know what to say, I hope you watched it all over this shop and it actually all depends how these tattoo makers are professionally and do they care about health aspect of making a tattoo. I mean if I were you I wouldn't get that risk for I suppose you are far away from your country. Anyway I have a friend that made a tattoo in Ecuador while she was staying in Quito and first couple of days all seemed just fine, the tattoo was perfect and so beautiful but she ended up with serious infection and to tell you the truth she was lucky enough to survive this. So in general I don’t think it is safe making a tattoo in Ecuador though I repeat it all depends on the professionalism.
